Pros

Great coworkers. Made many friends over the years. Friendships are forged in fire. Once the Stockholm syndrome wears off you'll find there are better places to work.

Cons

Californians now have the option to end unbearable end-of-life suffering, unfortunately this option isn't afforded to Pelco. It has been gasping for six years never able to take a full breath. Pelco's inability to innovate has metastasized, and regular layoffs are a predictable and embarrassing incontinence. No company should have to suffer this much.

Pros

- Decent pay and good benefits - work truck with gas card -good experience

Cons

- management is disconnected from field employees - review process does not reflect employee performance since managers do not go out in field in order to properly assess job performance - poor communication which leads to chaotic project implementation - no standardization of necessary info for each customer site. You walk in completely blind each time you visit a customer you’ve never been to - safety is important, but corporate pushes redundant messaging so frequently i believe it has the opposite of the intended effect - forced to wear long sleeves FR shirts in hot weather even when you are not exposed to fire hazards any more than a standard office employee
